My LJ superpower!

[hafital]

I have an LJ superpower and that superpower is the ability to be completely oblivious to about 85% of whatever given drama happens to be occurring. It's a nice power, good power, but when I finally take notice of something I'm always "wah?". heh

Maybe if I beg Rache will treat us to her Bruiser/Bleeder theory.

I had to beg (okay, ask) in order to be treated to the excellent 3-point post, so please do! *g*

[sockkpuppett]

The Bleeder v. Bruiser theory is one of the greatest lessons I've ever learned!!

Yes, she must share with all of us. Personally? I go for the golden bruised ones. With a little blood. But mostly bruises on top of healing bruises on top of scrapes and agony. heh

[hafital]

Yeah, for me it's also one of the best lessons I've ever learned, too. Like falzalot I remember hearing her talk about it for the first time at Escapade years back and ever since then I go around catagorizing characters as either bleeders or bruisers. It totally informs my writing in a big way. hee

(I too tend to go for the bruisers... *mwah*)

I still remember sitting in MacG's room one Escapade when Rache explained her Bruiser/Bleeder theory. ::happy sigh::

[gryphonrhi]

I still remember Rac coming out of that panel, eyes agleam, and then doing a zine around it!! (Man, even if I was one of the writers, we had some *good* stories in Wounded Heroes....)

[geekturnedvamp]

That was one of my favorite moments at a con ever... And I will join you in begging, because I have tried to explain it to people since then but of course I could never recreate the experience.

[hafital]

hey you!

That was a fun night, wasn't it. *g* So far the begging hasn't worked...

[darthhellokitty]

I have been hearing rumors of the Br/Bl theory FOREVER. I'm about ready to offer the woman cookies at this point.

Wonderful theory. I'm a little sorry to see "One for the Road" as an example, though.

[hafital]

Ah see, your comment pretty much proves what rache is saying. *g*

I personally find it a relief to know others don't think the Methos in "One for the Road" is their Methos. He isn't my Methos. He falls out of my three point characterization, if you will.

However, I think Kat's September Song is one of the best stories in HL and one that's perfectly in character (for me! *g*). And I can see how she can go from this Methos in September Song and get to the Methos in One for the Road.

Tricksy wonderful characterizations.

[wickedwords]

September Song is completely in character for me, which is one of the reasons I like it. There really are a lot of stories that are popular favorites in HL that fall outside of my versions of the characters; it's just the way things are.

Never mind. I get into too much trouble when I post opinions.
